The Tx Group strives to provide the best possible experience for its clients: through specialist team members offering an exemplary clinical service, support staff providing impeccable customer service and the organisation’s dedication to providing the highest quality clinic facilities and resources.
Physio.co.uk specialises in providing musculoskeletal and neurological rehabilitation services to private individuals, insurers, case managers, solicitors, the NHS and Acquired Brain Injury (ABI) units. Treatment is provided within inpatient rehabilitation units, outpatient clinics and in community settings. We offer a wide range of services and strive to achieve the best results for our patients.

At Physio.co.uk we adopt a patient-centred philosophy and value the importance of teamwork, effective communication, honesty and openness. We provide a professional, safe and supportive environment to facilitate our clients in achieving their goals and realising their full potential.
We are looking for a paediatric neurological physiotherapist (band 6) to join our expanding team.

Provision of specialist neurological rehabilitation techniques such as functional electrical stimulation, constraint induced movement therapy, saebo, serial casting, thermoplastic splinting and hydrotherapy may be warranted to support the optimal rehabilitation of clients, alongside the delivery of education and training to parents, carers and relatives. You will also be required to ensure that physiotherapy records are maintained in line with professional standards.
Physio.co.uk has developed a clinical competency programme which relies on input from our band 6 team members, who supply clinical supervision to band 5 physiotherapists and assist with their completion of clinical competencies.
